The Spring Wind, a multidisciplinary, scientific international conference, was held for the 28th time between June 20 and 22, 2025. This year, Semmelweis University hosted the event. Three of us presented our research topics on behalf of the Doctoral School of Religion, Culture and Society at Babeș–Bolyai University. Éva Bojoievschi, Noémi Geng, Noémi Portik, and Sister Klarissza. The various sections ran in parallel on Friday and Saturday, in morning and afternoon blocks, separated by meals and other programs. These included voluntary blood donation and the Civil Space. The latter featured presentations by the Library of the Central Statistical Office, as a national specialist library, the Library of the National Assembly, and the National Laboratory for Digital Heritage. Eight participants presented their research in the theology section. Noémi Geng outlined her study conducted among a group of university students entitled “The Pastoral Needs of Young Adults.” Noémi Portik, Sister Klarissza, presented the main points of her research entitled “The Sacredness of Art in the Mirror of Spiritual Theology,” outlining three artistic trends. Éva Bojoievschi presented her work in English, which was classified in the Education section due to its research area. Her topic was “Transcendent Love as a Creative Source of Existential Resilience Among Disadvantaged Youth.” In addition to their own presentations, participants had the opportunity to observe and discuss other research areas in their free time, which was enriched by the participation of several nations. Overall, we had a rich experience thanks to the complex, colorful, and well-organized program, which was crowned by an awards ceremony and gala dinner on the evening of June 21.
